“Love vs. Dopamine and Knowing The Difference” Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

Dopamine relationships are doomed to failure. Dopamine is the chemical that mediates pleasure in the brain and love is not always pleasurable.

Love is an action, not a feeling. Love is a profound sense of responsibility and respect for another human being. LOVE IS NOT SEX. No matter what that man tells you; you do not prove your love to anyone by having sex with them!

Lust is NOT LOVE, LUST is however, an emotion or feeling of intense desire in the body. It is an uncontrolled or illicit sexual desire or appetite or a strong aggressive craving. And with Valentine’s Day upon, the talk of love, the questions of love and the mixed feelings of love that has flooded my inbox prompts the topic of discussion: “Love vs. Dopamine, Know The Difference“

Tracy said To wait for the Dick!!! Let the DOPAMINE past 1st

Yeah but that applies to her young listeners, those who don’t know Yeah and I heard her/the show
———-Really Angelhair, and you think grown folks are exempt from the Dopamine effect? How stooped of you!!! We all have that chemical sweetie, sorry to break it to ya!!!

No hunty, if the shoe fits I suggest you lace that bitch up and wear it. Because grown folks are not exempt. we all have that dopamine molecule.

LOL!!! 😆 HELLO!!!! Trace broke that shit down to the TEE!!!

Girls are groomed to be brides and boys are not groomed to be grooms. That’s a big part of it in a nutshell. Society (read=men) placed these “norms” where the guy is scared to commit and gets high fives for being a slut and girls are supposed to save themselves for the aforementioned sluts.

Welp!!! I’m a woman and I can say. It’s not all the men’s fault. My single girlfriends are a hot smoking mess. Like get yourself together and respect yourself! My brother is a good man and can’t find a self respecting woman to save his life!

People have to stop believing in “love” period. It’s a very fickle emotion and very few people are capable of the act. Marriage is a contract – first and foremost – longevity is determined by whatever stipulations you agree to when you sign that certificate. To sign your life away to one partner under the guise of “love” is delusional. Hell you can love someone today and hate their guts tomorrow.

Love is a social construct. It doesn’t exist in nature. It’s a total fallacy. A figment of our imagination. It is rooted in fairy tales and fantasy and driven by brain chemicals that fade over time. That’s why over 60% of marriages fail.

love n war is the reality of any real relationship, which is why Tamar said somebody lied to her about them (relationships). Uma need somebody to post the lyrics now. But anywho, Tra’s closing went well with the conversation of course.

Somebody said every day, was gon’ be sunny skies,
Only Marvin Gaye and lingerie, I guess somebody lied
We started discussin’ it to fightin’ then “Don’t touch me, please.”
Then it’s “Let’s stop the madness, just come lay with me.”
And truth be told I’m wavin’ my flag before it goes bad yeah yeah

‘Cause we made it this far on for better or worse
I wanna feel it even if it hurts
If I gotta cry to get to the other side, let’s go ’cause we’re gon’ survive oh

We stay on the front lines
Yeah but we’re still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
Only in love and war

Sometimes you’re my general, you quarterback all these plays
Sometimes you’re my enemy and I’m throwin’ grenades
We’ll just be chillin’ and laughin’, I’m layin’ on your chest
Don’t know what happened ’cause things just went left
But here we go back down that road
That’s just the way that it goes

‘Cause we made it this far on for better or worse
I wanna feel it even if it hurts

If I gotta cry to get to the other side, as long as you’re there I’ll survive oh
We stay on the front lines
Yeah but we’re still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
Only in love and war
As long as we make up after every fight when it’s over
You know I’m comin’ home right there where I belong
I’m takin’ off this armor oh-oh-oh-whoa-ooh-oh-oh
And we stay on the front lines
Yeah but we’re still here after the bomb drops
We go so hard we lose control
The fire starts then we explode baby
When the smoke clears we dry our tears
